COMMENT
The subject’s operating
performance in 2009
was stagnant with
a drastic decrease
in both sales
sale and net
profit comparing to the
same period of
2008. This was not
only due to
a slow growth
of related industries
but also an
intensified competition in
both local and overseas
markets.
In order to
increase and maintain
its business’s profit
margin, the subject
has cut costs
and expanded its business
aggressively of both
local and overseas markets
to ensure the company
as a key
global player in
the industry. Generally,
the subject’s business
is still promising.
The capital was
registered at Bht.
1,000,000 divided into 10,000
shares of Bht.
100 each.
The capital was
increased later as
followings:
Bht. 5,000,000
on September 29,
1987
Bht. 290,000,000
on October 22,
1993
The latest registered
capital was increased
to Bht. 290,000,000
divided into 2,900,000
shares of Bht.
100 each with
fully paid.
